Frank, why is the glass "tainted" or do you mean "tinted" or even "painted"??

Other than that I agree with Elsa!

Or stained.

Tainted has unpleasant connotations.

Stained is probably more appropriate.

If Frank don't mind, I'll change the title of the thread.

Anyway, I post a stained glass of my own. (Df, Noct-Nikkor at f/1.2)

So what about the pubs Frank?

And in the town near where I live, many of the older houses seem to have internal doors with stained glass windows in them.

Thanks Frank.

Very nice Francis, the details are different shots?

It was Christmas-eve and the lights were on in the church because there was a service.  That's an opportunity to see the window from 'the other side'  ;)


A detail from the one above.

Yes, they come from different windows.

The picture below shows detail from the first image I posted which, by the way, isn't very great : I wasn't front of it when shooting and I had to correct perspective lines in software, hence visible degradation.

So, the detail below is from another shot as the bottom of the window was more accessible.

Maybe a little on the side of the topic, but it is on glass, but pretty temporary. And I will say it can be pretty beatiful also.

Yes it is ice roses on the window. They grow themself when its cold.
At a hut in the mountins, I have left a 55mm/3.5, PK-13 and the right amount of lens hood and K-rings for setting the lens direct against the window, just for this purpous.

Beautiful Asle and Armando.

These are two windows in the Chapel of Emmaus in Helvoirt. The place is not open for public, unfortunately.

Stained glass window in the front of the Wade Memorial Chapel, Lakeview Cemetery in Cleveland OH.  The Wade Chapel was built by the grandson of Jeptha Wade, the baron of Western Union Telegraph. It is a Tiffany created art work.

Stained glass has metallic salts added during manufacture to give it its color or the colors are painted on and then fused to the glass by firing in a kiln.

Børge, Frank, Anthony and Akira - thank you for the comments!

It is created by Peter Brandes, a Danish painter, sculptor, ceramist and photographer - in 1997. It was possible to get really close and almost be engulfed by the colors...

They recently replaced the stained glass in a small chapel in my neighborhood; the painting is waiting for restauration.
